LRRWMO Meeting Minutes May 27, 1993 Page 7 specifically itemize the next bill on which said charges will appear. Knutson suggested Barr Engineering separate those charges on two bills when next they bill the LRRWMO, and Knutson would send that bill on to the City of Andover. The board concurred it would be inappropriate for Barr Engineer- ing to bill Andover directly in that they are not a client. Perry stated he wanted to see some procedure in writing so this does not .happen again. VOTE: 3 ayes - 1 naye (Perry). Motion carried. Motion was made by Weaver, seconded by Ferguson, to AUTHORIZE PAYMENT OF THE $600.00 BILL TO THE ANOKA COUNTY SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT FOR THE LRRWMO'S PARTICIPATION IN THE 1993 LAKE MONITORING PROGRAM. 4 ayes - 0 nayes. Motion carried. SECRETARIAL/EQUIPMENT OPTIONS Mikkonen updated the board on problems she is encountering while attempting to address LRRWMO matters. However, first she reported, as of May 31, 1993, she is no longer the Recording Secretary for other boards and commissions and has accepted a part-time position with the City of Anoka's Parks Department which normally encompasses Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesday mornings. She wanted the board to be aware should, for whatever reason, she be required to work at the Park Department on LRRWMO meeting days, that would have to take first priority. She indicated she wished the board to be aware of this should it wish to pursue secretarial services elsewhere. Mikkonen also noted that problems still exist with obtaining proper equipment usage at Anoka City Hall when she needs to access a computer terminal in-house. The current beg/borrow process is time consuming and inefficient. Also, because she will no longer be working for the City of Anoka as a Record- ing Secretary, her home terminal will be removed. She reported conversations with Schrantz, Weaver, and Anoka City Manager Mark Nagel when consideration was given to the purchase of a lap top computer and perhaps even a jet printer. Mikkonen stated this equipment could be utilized by her at home, at City Hall, or even at meetings. What's more, should the board decide it should seek a secretary with more stable hours, this equipment could just as easily be shifted to that person. Mikkonen reported, however, that in her opinion it would be totally unacceptable to share a lap top computer with Anoka Alternate Ray Schultz in his office should one be purchased, as he previously suggested.
